From the KS Attorney Generals website http://www.ksag.org/Concealed_Weapon...er_states.htm:

1. Alaska
2. Arizona
3. Arkansas
4. Colorado
5. Florida
6. Hawaii
7. Kentucky
8. Louisiana
9. Michigan

21. Texas
22. West Virginia

There is one (1) additional state Wyoming that is pending a determination of whether it will meet the criteria for recognition.

Zundfolge : Good news travels fast huh? Just finished reading your reply at combatcarry when I came over and posted the list!
 
Great News!!

Question though...Where can I find a list of all the states that have reciprocity with Texas? Sure I could look it up myself, but I am only asking for a point in the right direction, I'm lazy lol:) .

Still 2 Many Choices!?
 
Packing.org is a good source of info for reciprocity.

This news is terrific. Now we just need to work on Nebraska.
 
Wait, NY doesnt have reciprocity with KANSAS?! Youve got to be kidding me. It cracks me up that a supposedly "difficult" state like NY has standards too lax for KANSAS of all places. :neener:
 
Dorryn

I understand where you are coming from, but NY does not have reciprocity with Kansas, why should Kansas have reciprocity with NY. One thing that is a little annoying to me is the fact that MO recognizes all CCWs but places like NY, CA and NV do not recognize ours.

I am glad about Kansas though, it means on monday I will not have to remove my weapon while driving back home from Colorado.
 
What about a Florida non-resident license? Being from Illinois I have to rely on the six non-resident permits I have. Florida, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Connecuit, Maine and Utah. Jim.
 
As was listed on the OP, Kansas does not accept NY permission slips because NY has VERY lax training requirements compared to what Kansas would like to see. The only training I needed to complete before applying for my permission slip was to sit in a classroom for 3 hours while a guy covered everything from defining what a primer is to applicable use of force laws. There was no shooting in the class, though, which I think a lot of states are looking for.

Also, NY doesn't accept ANY permission slips but those made in NY, so why should any state accept NY permission slips?

There's no such thing as a Florida "non-resident" license. It's the same license for everybody, regardless of where they live, so long as they meet the requirements. So if you have a Florida CHL, you've satisified the requirements for Kansas (as I read it).

The reason given for excluding NY was lack of a training requirement. In that sense, the NY requirement is too lax. It also suggests that the real standand in NY is who you know, not what you know.

Some states only recognize permits if issued from the state you live in, such as Michigan and New Hampshire do not recognize my Fla. because I do not live in Florida. Jim.
 
This is a very strange list.
There are a lot of states on it whhich will never recognize the Ks. permission slip.
But jeeze Pennslyvania isn't recognized? That's plain silly. And I don't even live there.

Don't confuse honoring permits with reciprocity. For example, Kansas may honor New Jersey and Hawaii permits, but I'm betting the reverse isn't true - because those states don't currently honor anyone elses. And hardly issue any to their own residents.
